I profiled Snaxshot, who is infuriatingly first on everything!

I would say I contributed to the pumpkin spice discourse, but there isn't one, which is the point:

Gather ye tomatoes while ye may, etc.

Come fall, Americans will once again be stuck with flavorless grocery-store tomatoes. Because of tariffs, they’ll also be more expensive.

In these trying times, I wrote about the question facing all of us: Is New York City poised for a frozen yogurt renaissance?
grubstreet.com
Pistachio drizzles top artisanal swirls while once-forgotten chains plot a return to prominence. Is the next big yogurt boom here at last?

There has never been a better time to hate eggs! I wrote about the winners of this moment (egg-haters):

For some chefs and food writers, the staple has long been a source of disgust.

Yet another deranged media development!!
Dear Friends -- It us with great sadness I announced that I've been laid off by Vox Media, along with a number of my colleagues, and will no longer be contributing to Eater NY, a role I've had for over 10 years. Thanks for your support, and stay tuned for future projects.

Some people love their spouses but hate their weddings! (I wrote about it)

Not everything goes according to plan. For some brides, it can be hard to move on.

For months I have debated a dining newsletter written by my dog. Now could be the time!
@lilyjmeyer @delia_cai and @xwaldie makes the excellent suggestion that someone's dog should write a newsletter, or maybe there should be no more newsletters

I wrote about secretive restaurants!
nytimes.com
Some fine-dining establishments are sharing as few details as possible online in hopes that diners will let go and trust their chefs.

Does my dog need experiences? Do I? What is the point of doing anything? I wrote about it
thecut.com
I’m worried my dog’s life is boring and repetitive. How much novelty does a pet need?

who would have thought that a story about dogs in new york city restaurants would involve two anonymous sources? not me! another banger from @rtsugar
nytimes.com
According to the New York City Department of Health and many diners with service dogs, the answer is no. But some dog owners can’t part with their pets.
